1979 Map of Rib River Lookout Tower

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Rib River Lookout Tower stands as a focal point in this 1970s landscape of Taylor County, overlooking the heavily forested and marshy divide between the Big Rib River and the headwaters of the Little Black River. This era in Greenwood, Browning, and Goodrich townships shows a rural settlement pattern defined by isolated farmsteads and specialized local infrastructure. Small community landmarks like Greenwood Sch and Cloverdale Sch alongside St Peter Ch anchor the local geography, while a series of named roads such as Joe Martin Rd and Tamarack Drive navigate the wet lowlands. The presence of several Gravel Pits and a prominent Radio Tower suggests a mid-century economy balancing local resource extraction with modern communication needs in this northern Wisconsin woodland.
